10:00 B2 15:00 C2 in column D Cell 2 =C2-B2 then hit enter done show me hours from start to end.
once I get the hours I would like a total then up to.

I also clicked in cell format cell to numbers and get error Err:552[table][tr][td][/td][/tr][/table]Thanks

  Laptop installation?

Once Win7 dies on my laptop (or I want to upgrade to a new HDD/SSD), I want to install LL.  How would I get the touchpad to work?

  What are the volume key mapping commands?
Posted by: Lend27 - 08-31-2015, 04:13 AM - Forum: Sound - Replies (1)

I installed LL2.6 beta on my Chromebook Acer C720.
All is well except a few issues.
I am trying to map the volume up, down, and mute keys to the volume keys on my keyboard.
What commands would I use?

Thanks!

  Latest VLC?
Posted by: paul1149 - 08-30-2015, 11:49 PM - Forum: Installing Software - Replies (8)

Hi,


I'd like to install the latest VLC, as it now has a Resume function that remembers your last viewing position. This version is not available in the 2.4 repository, and when I go to videolan and click on the ubuntu download the latest version there seems to target the 13.04 core, whereas LL 2.4 is the 14.04 core. Yet I read people using Linux Mint are enjoying the latest VLC, so I'm not sure what I'm missing.


Thanks,
Paul

  Login without a mouse? (Am I missing something)
Posted by: Xorcist - 08-30-2015, 03:14 PM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (5)

For the life of me I can't figure out how to login using just the keyboard. It seems I need a mouse to click my user name before I can start typing in my password. Am I missing something? How can I enter my password without using the mouse? If there is no way to do this, I've very much like to see support for this added to the next version of Linux Lite, as I'm much more a keyboard user than I am I mouse user.

  Linux Lite and tabletPCs
Posted by: ChrisL - 08-29-2015, 11:03 PM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (5)

I bought an HP tc4400 a while back, and there is a fair amount of info about installing Linux on this machine, but the info is pretty old (as is the machine).  It's a cool little unit though and I was thinking about putting Linux Lite on it.


Ubuntu seems to be one of the more "tablet and tablet/pc friendly Distros".  I know LL uses a pretty heavily modified kernel and was wondering if LL retains some of the tablet features of Ubuntu, such as Wacom drivers by default, etc.


Any thoughts or experience with this anyone?


Thanks!

Hi,
Not sure if it my browser..??, running latest Chrome.
A few time's recently I've created a post, done a preview, and it is all messed up with "mark-up" type stuff, and most of the text missing.
Just occurred with my last post, so I have to copy the text and re-start the post.
It looks like the screenshot below...
